A book review of Fahrenheit 451

I recently purchased the 60th Anniversary edition of Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury’s masterpiece.  This trade paperback edition contains additional materials about the author and his writings.  The novel itself is 158 pages. This book is a gift from the past, and a warning to all of us about the future.  Ray Bradbury remarked that he had written a book about the future, and he often spent his time trying to prevent it. Cherish people. Cherish books.
